Reviews unitarity bounds for B-meson form factors, shows standard methods apply rigorously only to B→π, develops GG parametrization for general cases, and delivers combined-analysis predictions with public supplementary material.

abstract
We use recent Belle results on $\bar{B}^0\rightarrow D^{*+}l^-\bar{\nu}_l$ decays to extract the CKM element $|V_{cb}|$ with two different but well-founded parameterizations of the form factors. We show that the CLN and BGL parameterizations lead to quite different results for $|V_{cb}|$ and provide a simple explanation of this unexpected behaviour. A long lasting discrepancy between the inclusive and exclusive determinations of $|V_{cb}|$ may have to be thoroughly reconsidered.

Angular observables in B→D(*)ℓν decays can distinguish Lorentz structures of new physics contributions fitted to measured R(D(*)) ratios, even when those ratios agree with the Standard Model.
A combined fit to B to D(*) l nu data yields R^{±0}=1.062(19) as evidence for isospin violation in Υ(4S) decays and branching fractions up to 1.6σ larger than prior averages, addressing inconsistencies in V_cb extractions.
The Heavy Flavour Averaging Group reports updated world averages for b-hadron, c-hadron, and tau-lepton properties including branching fractions, lifetimes, mixing, CP violation, and CKM elements.
Status report on Fermilab-MILC lattice QCD calculations of B to D form factors highlighting unresolved tensions in heavy flavor physics.
